Everyone involved with Trump should be investigated for their parts and actions regarding the Traitorous Acts Against the United States of America on January 6th, 2021!
 
The Washington Post's editorial board is urging Democrats on the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 rioting at the U.S. Capitol to subpoena former President Trump's daughter, Ivanka, his former chief of staff, Mark Meadows, and another top adviser.

"Top of the list is precisely what then-President Donald Trump did before, during and after the attack.

How did he prepare his speech preceding the insurrection, in which he told the crowd to fight?

What did he anticipate his audience’s reaction would be?

When did he know the pro-Trump mob was threatening the Capitol?

Why did he offer only mild statements long after the danger was clear?

Did Trump-affiliated rally organizers coordinate with extremist groups?" the Post wrote in an editorial published on Tuesday.

"Answering such questions calls for subpoenaing former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows; Mr. Trump’s daughter Ivanka and her husband, White House senior adviser Jared Kushner; and other White House aides with useful information."

standing ovation
 
Each of them will plead the fifth, fight the subpeonas, and drag this out. There's no way that any of them would ever answer questions. I mean, if everyone was innocent of this, then it would be a walk in the park, right?

Fully investigating all of that has to be coming, otherwise it would be a sham.
 
One cannot plead the 5th if a direct answer does not self-incriminate.

If complicity in the attack can be proven then it should be prosecuted. This would mean removal from government positions, and a ban from ever serving again, plus any other sentence or Constitutional remedy should be carried out.
 
Nice thought, not going to hold my breath…..

It will be interesting to see who is subpoenaed and ignore/fights it. If they have nothing to hide then why not come forward without a fight.......a question Trumpers like to ask when States resist further election audits and investigations.
 
I don't see how it is the job of newspaper editors to tell elected officials what to do.
Its called "their opinion". Congress has the option to ignore the newspaper's opinion if they want to.
 
Will the Democrats in Congress take their orders from the Washington Post or think for themselves we shall see. If they do take their orders from the media then it just is more proof the investigation is more about propaganda than truth.

Sure, I just prefer the media to stick to reporting facts rather than promoting their personal opinions, especially when the distinction between the two is often so fuzzy. This is far from the only example, especially in the US, it just happened to be a very blatant one, hence my observation. :cool:
 
Who gives a rat's **** what WaPo wants?

They can kiss the ass of everyone they want to get a subpoena.
I give a rat's ass ......

Washington Post can be more objective whereas too many politicians are afraid ......

Yes the post put forth a damn good thought. Now it is time for congress to appoint a special investigator then a special prosecutor. Bring it on

Welp, almost every major newspaper in America has an opinion section.
If the average American cannot distinguish between facts in a story versus what a group of people "think should happen" in an editorial, then dunno what to tell you.

LOL!!

WaPo hasn't been "objective" in more than two decades...and they aren't objective now. They are still the Dem's propaganda arm.

btw, I didn't say "rat's ass". I said "rat's ****".
 
Really ? ...
Why not subpoena Pelosi ! She is the one in Charge of Capital Security! They were given intel that people will be there to stop the Voter Fraud that was seen in the 202 Election ! She turned down offers of help by the national guard! She allowed a small team of officers to be vunerable to a mob of disenfranchied Voters !...

Also it seemed that the Police were instructed to help the Mob into storming the capital ????....

Also CNN & NBC had a contract with a BLM/Antifa Guy for his Protest Video of the Capital riots.....
Days before the 6th .... Paid him >$75K ! But You stick with your TDS !

 
The party that Trump represents need to provide funding for the FBI and to maintain high levels of security. Remember GW did not continue funding the surveillance of the 9/11 culprits we now know that was stupid. Trump might have borrowed from the national security budget to build a wall and/or ignored all warnings from the FBI......... oh shit I forgot Rump was an active Jan 6th element .

Cannot blame Pelosi ......... conservatives do not manage anything well EXCEPT lying.

National Guard and active duty military are not trained in law enforcement. However the FBI and Secret Service are and have the firepower.
 
just get to the truth of the attempted insurrection (like cops/detectives would do on an event of a much smaller scale).
 
LOL!!

Textbook reaction example when someone goes after their cult leader. Attempt to destroy the opposition to their delusions at all costs, even with provable lies. It's the Trumpublican M.O.

Don't cry.
 
A Democrat paper wants to go after Trump administration officals? Just the same thing they have been doing the last 5 years.
